7419.80 - Other:

This HTS category, 7419.80, encompasses a broad range of articles made of copper that are not specifically provided for elsewhere within the chapter. It serves as a residual category for finished or semi-finished copper goods that do not fit into more precise groupings based on their manufacturing process or specific function.

Unlike its sibling category 7419.20, which is strictly limited to copper articles that have undergone casting, molding, stamping, or forging but have not been further worked, 7419.80 includes items that may have undergone additional processing or assembly. This distinction is crucial for accurate classification, as the level of further working is a primary differentiating factor.

Within this category, several subcategories further refine the classification of specific copper articles. These include items such as copper wire cloth, grill, netting, and expanded metal, as well as specialized items like containers designed for personal carrying, copper springs, and chains and their parts. The existence of these subcategories highlights the necessity of examining the specific nature and intended use of the copper article to determine the most appropriate classification.
